    I hate to take anything in pregnancy but I've been suffering soooooo badly. Rhinocort has changed my life. It's an inhaler here in Canada. I think there's an equivalent if not the same thing in the states.

    You can also use an oxymetazoline spray for a max of three days. A neti pot can work too, but not when its that severe.
